Ordinary CGI has, in my opinion, an undeserved bad rap.  If you're going to
be making a web site that has to handle 100 hits a second, then CGI is not
appropriate, but let's be honest: the web sites that most of us produce
have to struggle under a devastating load of about 100 hits a day.

At that level of load, CGI is perfectly workable, and it's certainly the
easiest of the choices for development and exploration.
